Homely Christmas

HAPPY SOLSTICE AHEAD TO ALL

MAY THE LIGHT CONTINUE TO SHINE IN THE DARKNESS

Winter Solstice

Well, the last post was when Ricky went to University, and that seems an age ago already, despite only three or four months clock-time having passed. A lot has changed - I'm now about to leave my f/t career of 15 years to start practising Hypnotherapy and NLP Training Courses in the New Year of 2007. I'm offering a course in the Western Esoteric Tradition on another formative website, and planning to complete my MA and start my PhD this coming year!

Whoot!

What else? Well, Ricky is settling into Uni, and Brina is getting her MA at the Lancaster University Awards Ceremony today! She's now officially *more* cleverer than I am. Grrrrr!

New Toy for today: A Metronome (not a small mythical creature on the Parisian Underground, that's a Metro Gnome) for speech exercises for the Hypnotherapy course I'm writing.

New Book: Too many to mention. Really. Trying to read Lisey's Story by Stephen King but not getting time as I have to complete an essay on Swedenborg and Boheme's Theosophies in the next two weeks!

New Music: Liking Evansecence muchly! Particularly 'Lithium' which is a soaring song!

Games: Errrr .... Everquest 2, although Brina is also officially levels higher than me now.

TV: Battlestar Galactica series 3. Was flicking through channels on the TV, and saw an old episode of Star Trek (TNG) and then watched the first episode of Battlestar series 3, and the first few minutes were *worlds* apart from 'old' Science Fiction! Incredible images, direction, gritty detail, reflections on terrorism, fundamentalism, religion, duty, sex, woah!

Domestics: We have a leaky roof and it's not stopped raining for two months.
